Chapter104Â
Kaleb calmly explained, “Zayne’s kidnapping of Ms. Pierce willÂ
face the legal consequences it deserves, but for now, I received aÂ
call from the audit department before coming in. Mr. Pierce, theÂ
second batch of auditors will be coming to talk to you.”Â
Finley’s eyelid was twitching like crazy, and Spencer lookedÂ
mysterious and unclear.Â
Adelaide finally saw the reaction that should have appeared onÂ
the faces of this father and son.Â
Reginald tilted his head and said, “You go out and wait for meÂ
first.”Â
Adelaide nodded and got up to leave.Â
Spencer’s gaze followed her, and when he discreetly lookedÂ
away, he suddenly reacted to something. The next second, heÂ
abruptly looked at Reginald across from him.Â
Reginald smirked, looking down on others with a hint ofÂ
superiority.Â
Spencer gritted his teeth, feeling a stronger sense of foreboding.Â
Outside.Â
Chapter 104Â
Adelaide only sat for a moment, then Nathan showed up withÂ
some people, followed by the auditors.Â
Two groups of people entered the meeting room in a grandÂ
manner.Â
The way he looked, it was like he wanted to kill Finley.Â
Her phone rang.Â
It was Teresa who called.Â
She got up and went downstairs to answer the phone, “Hello,Â
Tess.”Â
Teresa seemed to be running when she suddenly received a callÂ
from Mr. Hurst, saying “you were kidnapped last night. WhoÂ
kidnapped you!” Mr. Hurst said you were okay, are you sureÂ
you’re okay? Are you still at the police station? I’m on my wayÂ
now.Â
The phone was ringing like a machine gun, Adelaide couldn’tÂ
help but laugh and cry: “Ms. Sampson, which question do youÂ
want me to answer first?”Â
“Who kidnapped you?”Â
“The financial manager of the Hicks Group.”Â
“What the heck?!”Â
Chapter 104Â
But Adelaide still thought it was too weird, when she asked thatÂ
man about Garrett, his expression clearly changed.Â
Before long, Adelaide received Teresa, who was out of breath, atÂ
the police station.Â
Teresa was on edge, she checked herself up and down, butÂ
when she saw those scratches, her eyes turned red and sheÂ
muttered, “Damn it!”Â
“Don’t be mad, I’m fine,” Adelaide said, touching her face andÂ
quickly changing the subject. “Tess, do you know how FinleyÂ
and Spencer were brought back after being taken away duringÂ
the day?”Â
“The Barnard family.”Â
After saying that, Teresa looked at Adelaide’s reaction andÂ
smiled, “Are you shocked?”Â
Adelaide moved her lips and then calmed down quickly, “It’sÂ
normal, both families are planning weddings, when the PierceÂ
family messes up, the Barnard family will be laughed at too.”Â
But just by looking at Reginald’s attitude, it was clear he wasÂ
going to give Finley a hard time.Â
Adelaide’s phone buzzed, she opened it curiously, and it was aÂ
message from Reginald.Â
Chapter 104Â
“Cornelius and Garrett came over, you went with Ms. SampsonÂ
to find a place nearby to grab a late–night snack, I’ll be out soon.””Â
After reading the content, Adelaide’s eyelids twitched twice.Â
Teresa caught a glimpse of the content and saw the nameÂ
Garrett, she felt like ants were crawling all over her body.Â
“Let’s go, let’s go,” she pulled Adelaide and hurried out.Â
They were walking to the right when the Barnard family’s carÂ
pulled in.Â
After days of torment, Garrett’s jawline became even more coldÂ
and thin. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of aÂ
familiar figure, but his father’s words quickly cut off his gaze.Â
“Pull yourself together, your fiancee is Amanda now, notÂ
Adele.”Â
“Unless you don’t want me to give you the subsidiaryÂ
management authority!”Â
Garrett clenched his fist, holding back his emotions, “Dad, IÂ
know.”Â
